I love the soft blending of colors in the background and the elegant dainty pose of this sweet ballerina.
The pose is classic from the top of her head, tips of her fingers down to the amazing balance of her toes.
Beautiful work J~Man ;)

I like the pastel look the texture of the chalk. Nice body proportions and I like how the white outfit stands out with the red, purple and black background. Thanks for sharing.

Nice work here James. I like the pastel background which enhances the ballerina in white. A great classic pose for her with just the right amount of detail. Very well done James and as i have said numerous times before, you are getting better and much more refined in your art ~ Steve

This is just gorgeous. I love the pose and the shading of colours in her tutu. Beautiful colours for the background as well. Very nice drawing.

James,
A beautiful pastel portrait of this Ballerina in a white Tutu standing on her points with the other leg held high behind her back her are held out on either side & her head & face looking up in an elegant pose against your background of crimson & purple. Created with very skilful draftsmanship, beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this dancer to life.
Susan

This is a beautiful piece! The beautiful graceful ballerina in her shimmery white tutu, in a wonderful ballet position , just so well created! I especially like the way your background is done in the deeper tones , it really allows this ballerina to stand out and come forward ! Very nice work again!

Nicely done pastel of a lovely ballerina. The colors capture the feel of the stage lighting (there could be a couple shadows on the stage that would bring that out more ) A nice sense of space in this piece. Well done.
